Chapter 542: Chapter 242: Searching for Silver Dragon Fish_4

Overall, wild individuals have a slightly lower ornamental value, but they possess a more balanced and reasonable body shape with smoother mouth lines, unlike the abrupt features of artificially bred specimens. Each has its merits, so to speak.

"Wow, is this a wild Silver Dragon Fish? It didn’t seem that big in the water, but look at it now, it’s over half a meter long."

"The scale outlines are inconspicuous, but they’re like dense armor, which has its own kind of beauty."

"Such a small one is already sixty centimeters long, I wonder if there are any meter-long wild specimens. If we could transport a meter-long wild specimen back home, how much would it sell for?"

"Just asking weakly, does this taste good? It seems like we won’t have a chance to bring it back home. I’m not sure if Silver Dragon Fish are protected species and if they can be eaten."

"Cut into pieces and deep-fried, it would definitely be delicious."

"I’ve tasted it before. After my pet dragon fish died, my mom fried it. It was alright...."

The chat in the livestream was fairly normal until someone asked if it was good to eat, and suddenly the comment section went off track.

After showing off his catch, Lin Yang casually put the Silver Dragon Fish into the live fish bucket before speaking, "Before coming here, I had already checked; this type of Silver Dragon Fish isn’t a protected species here, so it can be eaten."

"Let’s keep the first one and, later on, if we manage to catch more, we can pick a few with bigger sizes to take back to the camp and try. There are definitely bigger fish in the shoal."

After securing the catch, he again checked the rewards shown on the fishing guidebook which displayed one thousand dollars, 10 points, and 10 experience points along with some fisheries encyclopedia knowledge.

Overall, the rewards were fairly ordinary.

After a slight adjustment, Lin Yang cast his line into the distance again, using the same technique.

Having mastered the trick of approaching stealthily, his success rate at catching fish was quite high; in no time, he had caught three more Silver Dragon Fish.

Now, the four Silver Dragon Fish in the bucket ranged in size from just over forty centimeters to about seventy centimeters, their body proportions largely consistent.

Even the largest one didn’t exert much force after being hooked; a fish of this strength was even something Yue’er could easily handle and reel in.

"It seems meter-long Silver Dragon Fish are rare. The fish in the shallows have been pretty much stirred up by me; looks like getting a super-sized Silver Dragon Fish today is going to be tough..."

Right as he finished speaking, he suddenly heard a striking splash from the shallow-to-deep water transition area across the bank.

Lin Yang was startled by the splash and immediately turned to look in the direction of the sound.

"That splash should mean something big." he said in a low voice.

A splash is the sound made by predatory fish during feeding.

Whether it’s the common Black fish, the perched-mouth, or the Sea Bass, and Silver Dragon, they all open their mouths wide and use the huge space created by the rapidly opening mouth to generate negative pressure and suck small fish inside.

The massive splash just now indicates that the predatory fish involved is definitely not small.

Ling Yang’s current position was at least 50 meters away from the splashing area across the bank, aiming to cast bait there with such small weights was nearly impossible.

He immediately turned to Sun Zhengdao, "Brother Sun, ask Baom to take us to the other side. There was a huge splash at the 11 o’clock direction over there, I suspect there’s something big."

Sun Zheng wasted no time and after a brief exchange with Baom, they quickly continued forward, making a detour.
